If We Do Lose FA Should We Trade Down?

02-25-2013, 06:33 PM

My question is if we do lose Boothe, and possibly some other FA should we trade down? There will probably no good OL in the draft at #19. D.J. Flucker is not worth at #19 pick; therefore, if he is the best OT available should we trade down?

Look we won't be able to re-sign all FA (I HOPE WE CAN!!) so if we do trade down, we can maybe get Flucker in the late 20s and a G/C with a 4th or maybe a 3rd round pick that we get.

What do you guys think?

I am all for trading back some in the 1st rd to pick up another pick in the 2nd or 3rd rd. In your scenario, if we lose Boothe, maybe the Giants trade back if they had their eyes on a Cooper from North Carolina?

But I have a feeling that Reese will find some value at 19 without trading back, even if we have lost Boothe or any other free agents on your list.

He will be gone before the 20s

Getting harder and harder to trade down. Has to be someone there that someone else is hot for that we don't want. Not sure at 19 if there is anyone like that.

This is a horrible 1st round (well, not for the Giants needs) to trade up for and I can't see us getting the "mother load" unless some team gets desperate for Barkley or Manuel. I'd be a big fan of stockpiling the late 2nd to mid 3rd round range all day though.

If he's there at 19 I will be all "Claude Rains"And I'll be impressed if someone gets that reference.

well he was the actor that played "The Wolf Man "... So maybe you would go all Wolfman on us, lol

Football has been very, very good to us.
After losing seasons 2013-15, the giants put up 11 wins in 16.. they are on way Back
But for now we can console ourselves with this fact-

# of Super Bowl victories since 1985:

1-Chicago, St. Louis, Tampa Bay, Indianapolis, New Orleans, Seattle
2-Washington, Green Bay, Pittsburgh, Baltimore
3-San Francisco, Dallas, Denver
4-New York Giants!!!
5-NE
Let's make it 5 in 2016 so we can be on a LINE NE again!!!

Anyway, if we lost FAs and were going to Trade down then Warmack would be the guy to go get. So no, no chance he's there at 19
